I love the form factor of this and the ambient data.

TFL do have some quite good APIs so you could use those rather than scraping the HTML.

I think you need to register but they seem happy to have amateurs and enthusiasts using them and they work quite well.

Thanks for the feedback on the form :) And yea, using an API would be much better! I wasn't aware of it, thanks!
Yeah, registration is free for up to 500 req/min if I remember right! Really nice from TfL.
